The No. 4 Buckeyes, as they have so many times before, found a way to get out of a close game with a big-time win. Ohio State knocked off Penn State on the road and took control of the Big Ten East in the process. Now Urban Meyer’s team has this through October: Indiana and Minnesota at home, at Purdue and Nebraska at home. Can OSU keep the pedal down?
The No. 15 Wolverines fell behind 17-0 against Northwestern and then found just enough to get it done. Just win, baby. There’s really no such thing as a bad road league win.
